Is Elliott a 1st round fantasy pick next year?

I'm watching/listening to the draft coverage on Yahoo.com and they had some fantasy analyst saying not only should he be a first round pick, be he should be picked first.

with his talent and that offensive line I can somewhat understand that thinking. Still, AP is probably the guy I'd take at #1

Dallas takes a runningback...lol.

Why wouldn't you? RBs can come in and play right away without a learning curve. Run them into the ground when they're cheap and dump them when the rookie contract is done.

Dallas has Darren McFadden and Alfred Morris so drafting a RB with the #4 pick is interesting

man that's a really good question. I was about to write "hell no!" but when it comes to RBs you need a solid OL and lack of depth at RB. Dallas has pretty good depth, but Elliot is going to have plenty of opportunities to run. Red zone carries are a question since the Cowboys just signed Alfred Morris in free agency.

you wouldn't because it's easier to find a quality runningback in the second/third round than it is finding quality defensive/offensive linemen.

That said, they're set on the o-line and there wasn't an obvious d-linemen that they passed on.

Between Robert Nkdemchi and now this Laremy Tunsil "hacked Twitter" story, this could lead to an expose on what really happens at Ole Miss

Not sure why the Bears moved up 2 picks. I'm guessing Floyd would have been available at 11

Might have thought someone else was looking to move up from farther down to take Floyd.

Only gave up a 4th rounder to lock in their guy so they aren't breaking the bank.

Giants really wanted him, from what I heard earlier today.

The Tunsil thing sucks, but that means a good team is going to get a great OT late in the first round. Someone will take a chance on him, and will be glad they did in 3 years

So Hugh Freeze just admitted that was Tunsil in the photo.

Ruh-roh.

There was never any question of that. It was clearly him. He pulled the mask off in the video.
